“Transelectrica has lifted its ban on power exports as of Friday, February 24, and it doesn’t plan to reinstate it,” the company said in a statement.
Local energy consumption rose to a 10-year high in February due to extremely cold weather and the government has authorized Transelectrica to limit or even cease electricity exports during February 16 – March 15 in case of emergencies.
The state company was also empowered to cap corporate consumption during the same period.
